Background

About Rhys Jones

My career in education began in 2006 as a Geography Teacher. Since then, I have gained extensive experience working in a range of schools across Middlesex and Hertfordshire. Over the course of eight years, I served as a Senior Leader in two highly successful yet distinctly different schools. As Assistant Headteacher at St. Ignatius College, I led on teaching and learning as well as whole-school CPD. Subsequently, at Hockerill Anglo-European College, I held the roles of Assistant Principal and Vice Principal, overseeing Quality of Education, Curriculum Development, and Data & Reporting. In January 2022, I joined the Avanti Schools Trust as the founding Principal of Avanti Grange in Bishop’s Stortford. It has been an immense privilege to lead this thriving school community. Avanti Grange became oversubscribed within its second year, and we recently moved to our brand-new, state-of-the-art £40 million campus, marking an exciting new chapter for the school and its students.
